Custos Excessivos de Gerenciamento de Escrow MSA
Definition
Escrow payments are state-specific, multiplied by cigarettes sold in-state, with refunds based on state's MSA allocable share, creating discrepancies and capital lockup.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: $206 billion minimum over 25 years for OPMs; per-cigarette escrow equivalent to MSA rates (e.g., R$0.50-1.00/cigarette estimated lockup)
- Frequency: Annual per-state deposits
- Root Cause: Complexity of 50-state varying escrow statutes and market share formulas
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Tobacco firms in Brasil tie up millions in MSA escrow funds annually. Automation of sales-volume-to-state-share calculations releases capital.
